Re: uuid extension not available

[reiner peterke <zedaardv@xxxxxxxxx>]

it sounds like you are missing the contrib code. 

if you built from source you need to go to the contrib directory and run make, make install. 

if you installed from a package you need to install the appropriate contrib package.

Hi

I have postgresql 9.2 installed on red hat linux 6.4 . I need to generate uuids using the uuid_generate_v4() function.

 

select * from pg_available_extensions does not list this extension. The only extension that is available is plpgsql.

 

I find uuid libraries, libuuid.so.1 and libuuid.so.1.3.0 in /lib64 folder.

 

What should I do next ? How can I can install this extension ?

 

Thanks,

Thara.
